can I wear my engagment ring as wedding ring

I love my engagement ring so much and it is too bulky to add another ring. Can I just use my engagment ring as the wedding ring?

As far as I know there is no etiquette regarding the ring, so if you want the engagement ring to be your wedding ring, go with it.

If you are going to have a ring ceremony (exchanging rings) then you should remove this ring now and save it for the big day. Otherwise, purchase a wedding band and then move the engagment ring to the right hand before the ceremony.

I agree. The wedding ring is 'the' ring that is important. An engagement ring isn't necessary. But, you can use any ring for your wedding ring.
